Valentine’s Day is around the corner and very possibly one of the most profitable day of the year for a lot of restaurants.  It’s time to knock the socks off of your customers with some of these clever ideas and lovable menu items we have rummaged through the internet to provide as a starting point.

Here is a list we have come up with to help assist you in running one memorable and flawless V-Day Celebration:

– First things first hearts everything & everywhere is a bit overdone.

Of course hearts are a top choice for Valentine’s Day – however it’s important to also incorporate other things into your design and not just a heart fest.  Rose petals, floating candles, champagne flutes, tall vases, can all be used in different ways to create a romantic and love filled atmosphere for even the most demanding food critic.  Check out this vase #pinspiration to get an idea of what we mean.

– Pick a color theme and stick with it – otherwise it will look like cupid ransacked your restaurant or that your restaurant business is on “”Valentine’s Day Steroids”” – reference from Miranda in the Sex and The City Movie – See video clip below:

Red, pink, black are usually top choices for color schemes and if you want to get really creative you can throw some accent colors like blue, purple, or yellow in the mix to break it up and really make your restaurant pop.

Classy and sophisticated looks can really be achieved when thinking outside of the red and pink Valentine’s Day box.

– A custom menu is something you can offer for the evening especially if you’re expecting a larger crowd.  A customized menu can allow you to just have a certain # of specials and allow you to prepare foods quicker if you’re making the same foods most of the night.  Being able to have things prepped beforehand will also save you time and keep your guests content by getting efficient service.

– Get creative with the layout of the plated food as well.  Different size heart shapes, cupids arrow, rose designs and more can really add a touch of class and give you that WOW factor in presentation.  Leave customers already planning their next dining experience at your restaurant because they are overjoyed with all the attention to detail of the evening or just allowing everything to be so perfect and romantic that this happens –
